Captain Nemo Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 Yeah, those were heavily based on the series (though Croc was green). But I have to admit, the old Joker barely looks like the one from B:TAS. Really? The 2006 Joker is practically 1:1 to the Batman Animated Series design. The only thing that may be off is the hair, but Lego was just using a re-color of an in-production piece. The 2006 Joker, Two-Face, Harley Quinn, and Poison Ivy were all 1:1 to their animated counterparts; which was awesome. I only wish Lego continued the line and adapted Justice League animated, so we wouldn't just be getting the League now! Quote
JaseTJ Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 For those hoping for more than 3 sets this summer, that's the same number reported so far for Marvel, too. Not that I'd mind more, but don't count on it. Plus that way maybe more people can afford to get half the sets :P Quote

StreakofBlue Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 Do you guys think we will ever get a set based on a superhero TV show? Specifically Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, and Titans. The reason I am wondering this is because of the Deathstroke set, which (unlikely) could be based off the Titans show. I know that the set is more likely to be based off the general "DC Comicss" but hey--a man can dream. Quote

No. Those shows are too adult for the superhero line, at least Arrow is, and we can assume Supergirl will be too. However I think the larger problem is the fact that even though those shows are popular, they have nowhere near the amount of viewers to warrant sets based off them as movies or more general comic sets do; and with the lack of viewers means a lack of target market viewers, ergo children. Heck we don't even get sets based on all of the super successful Marvel movies. We could always get semi-tie in sets--we did get a Green Arrow figure this wave, as well as a largely Flash based set.

mattdev25 Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 I'm picking up 4 out of the 5 sets tomorrow. I'm skipping Manta because I feel it's the most like a Batman set and I have no interest in a new Robin, so I'll buy the Manta fig online. I'll tell you guys what I think of the sets tomorrow, probably in the late afternoon (no images, since I don't have a Flickr) Quote
slugdude Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 Am I the only one who's sad that Marvel is stealing the show again this year? I honestly prefer Marvel to DC, but it's a little ridiculous. We finally get a Justice League wave, then Marvel gets Avengers, more Spidey and an Antman set, while DC just gets more Batman and maybe a Teen Titans (which is missing half the members). I'm happy with the DC selection, it's just that Marvel has gotten two unique and interesting waves a year for the past two years and DC is still giving us all Batman waves. I think it's time for DC to seriously step their game up. Quote

Lego is just not taking full advantage of the sets they can make. It seems like much of the sets are "remakes" of the original Lego Batman sets. Quote
YoshiBlockr Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 So at this time there is only 2 hours left of Christmas,, let the shopping for the 2015 dc superhero sets begin in the U.S. Just asking but for anyone who lives in New Jersey, have you found any 2015 sets in New Jersey. I have 10 lego retailing stores within 20 minutes, and I am hoping to hit them all tomorrow. So has anyone found any sets in NJ yet! Quote

I think it's time for DC to seriously step their game up. The difference: Marvel's properties have movie support, which traditionally drive a substantial amount of sales. As DC's movie schedule ramps up, it will likely even out. Quote

Matthew im begging you to please tell me what store and what city you got your sets please tell me. It's my birthday tomorrow, so please tell me, and did you see them. Quote

Lego is just not taking full advantage of the sets they can make. It seems like much of the sets are "remakes" of the original Lego Batman sets. Lego doesn't really have that much of a say. Whatever characters DC wants in the sets are going into the sets. Also Lego can't just do any build that also has be approved by DC but I think that they have a little more leeway with that. Quote
YoshiBlockr Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 Actually mattdev can you please take a picture of your receipt of the purchase of the 2015 sets from whatever store you got it from. Or you can please tell me the upc number for the set from whatever store you got it from. Please mattdev, I also live in NJ and it's my birthday tomorrow and I really want the sets. So please can you tell me where and what store you got the sets from. Quote

CF Mitch Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 Actually, I've decided not to buy any of the DC sets at all, this time. At least the known 2015 wave. I'll jut wait till the figs I want are available for a reasonable price. If I'd buy the entire sets that contain those cool figs, I'd be spending a lot of money on weird and/or useless vehicles and such again, only for those figs, so.. Regards, Mitch Quote

Douglas_Jon Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 So UK Fans, I've rung Toys R Us and they haven't stocked any 2015 sets yet, neither have Argos or Tesco. Anyone have any other ideas? Quote
lightningtiger Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 So the sets are called: 76034 The batboat harbor pursuit 76035 Jokerland Sadly no news about teen titans beast boy or star fire set. Okay, let me get a beam on this......two waves of DC in 2015......fine, so 76034 & 76035 might be based around the footage from the previous video game.....maybe. Teen Titan's eh ? Yes, Please.....I'm sort of getting into Teen Titan's Go.....just for laughs.....of course ! Plus that is one awesome poly bag.....must buy....might be an idea to build more bumper cars for other baddies eh ? Quote
Legoman123 Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 I really hope we see the Ventriloquist and Scarface and Black Mask. Quote

I'm going to Target and TRU today, I don't know the UPC numbers. But you should be fine getting them today if you go to those stores and NOT the Lego Store. Quote
YoshiBlockr Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 Thank you for the happy birthday Mattdev, can I just ask what city or town do you live in, or can you tell me me what's the name of your store. Quote
